so being fed up of the crap handbrake on the mr2 i decided to upgrade them properly
so it starts
good clearance from the wheel only managed to mock one up need to strip back off and do safety wire etc then onto front
4 pot rears with seperate handbrake and 4 pot fronts
If you see an MR2 with a raised engine cover, the bottom line is it's probably faster than your car.
Yes mate this is why I bought this kit as all the info and graphs were posted regarding the bias tests etc
Told exactly what discs calipers etc to purchase and nowhere near cheap lol

I thought so, did you just order the bare kit? Interested to know how you get on with this. How hard was it to get the other bits if you did go with just the fitting stuff? Are you going to be using this on track?
It does say that it might fit 16 some inch wheels too.
Was looking at the same line of brakes too. Please report back once you get a chance to test these out.
What size rotor did you go for?
Is that the narrow/smaller caliper or the larger one? sorry can't remember the proper names off the top of my head.
Alex did some incredible detailed work on this kit, wonderful work and aye they do work!! No bias issues at all and gets rid of that crappy stock rear caliper
thats the smaller rear caliper, have to remove and loctite all the bolts, will let you know and ill post all the exact part numbers uup when i get in the garage (to cold lol)

should be epic Great looks, great feel and no worries about fade either. If the piston sizes are similar to stock you should be ok on pedal travel and feel. I bought a Supra 1inch m/c ABS model to fit to mine but I never got round to it. Still got the m/c though
Looking forward to seeing the fronts done... would love a kit like this, but would need to fit it under 16s. The clearance on your rears looks promising!
